I installed Kubuntu 7.10 and during boot (after grub menu) the Samsung LCD monitor said 'Not optimum mode, recommended mode 1280 x 1024'. I have a Radeon video adapter and apparently usplash does not select a suitable resolution or refresh rate to match the monitor. After some searching I found this solution:

edit /etc/usplash.conf to show:
Code:
xres=1024
yres=768
then run:
Code:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure usplash
That made the splash screen work for me.
